Wearing Hijab is one the other things a Muslim woman does. It is recommended in Annisa:25. Nevertheless, many

people feel difficult to put it on. Some start to put it on, but take it off easily for the reason of job or school.

The main reason of wearing it should be because God asks us to do it. It is a form of submission to God and not

submitting to what society says we should look like. Once we teach ourselves to see God in everything we do and keep God

in our hearts, then our faith will be strong, and we will want to obey God and his orders, whether it is praying, fasting, giving

charity, and many other good jobs. With that point, we will probably decide to wear Hijab with never putting it off in

whatever condition. (---http://khitdhys.blogspot.com- --)
